Product Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
Western literary study flows out of eighteenth-century works by Alexander Pope, Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, Frances Burney, Denis Diderot, Johann Gottfried Herder, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others. Experience the birth of the modern novel, or compare the development of language using dictionaries and grammar discourses.

4-0 out of 5 stars Inspiring true stories of recovery
David Dodd has assembled a wide variety of stories to inspire and encourage addicted people to get clean.I was impressed that Twelve Step groups were NOT the focus of every tale, and that the one constant was that each individual made a PERSONAL CHOICE to forego their addiction and live sober.For all the help some people get from 12-Step groups, there are many who don't "relate" to the religiousity.But this book shows that recovery is still possible and worthwhile.The fact that most of these tales are told by celebrities and artists we KNOW only increases their value.Plus, it's nice to know that my gut feeling about Steven Tyler is "on the money" - he truly IS a mensch!!

5-0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book!
I was attracted to the many well-known names listed on the cover, but once I began reading the book, I was overwhelmed with its passion and solutions. David Dodd has done a remarkable job which is reflected in this collectionof interviews. My favorite part, however, is the introduction to thebook, where the author tells his personal story on how he became sober withthe help of Steven Tyler.His vivid description of the events wereastonishing to me, they were absolutely incredible. This is a wonderfulbook! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars The Fighting Gamecock
"God I'd hate to see the look on Old Stonewall's face when he sees Joe arriving at Heaven's gate in that Blue Uniform" - one Confederate veteran alledgedly told another, or words to that effect when General Wheeler passed on.

By that time this Fighting Gamecock of the Confederacy had proudly worn once again the Blue of the United States Army, leading Theodore Roosevelt and the Rough Riders through a number of vicious, swirling fire-fights right up to that grand assault on San Juan Hill.

This was something that came natural to Joseph Wheeler. Georgia-born, Ct. raised, and finally a son of Alabama. A West Pointer, several years ahead of George Custer (they knew each other)Wheeler, despite ties to the North, chose to resign his commission and go south at the outbreak of the Civil War.While he might not have been a brilliant Cavalry Commander, and he did have his run-ins with Nathan Bedford Forrest, who after one operation that failed (against Fort Donelson) vowed never to serve under Wheeler again, he was still outstanding at best, extremely competent at least - and bedevilled Sherman and the hapless fool and suspected coward who commanded the Union cavalry facing him in the Georgia campaign, H. Judson Kilpatrick (his West Point classmate).

Despite a rough time imprisoned after Appomattox, Wheeler turned the other check, and became a U.S. Senator who openly urged reconciliation between North and South. He could be faulted for prejudices towards Blacks, he was a product of the times and considerably less prejudiced than the bigots of his time like fellow Alabama Senator George Tyler Morgan, Pitchfork Ben Tillman, and Tom Watson - and Wheeler did respect, if not like, the "Buffalo Soldiers" who fought alongside him in the 9th and 10th Cavalry in Cuba.

When William McKinley, himself a Union vet who served at Antietam and in Sheridan's Shenandoah campaigns urged Wheeler to once again serve his country in the Spanish-American War, he hesitated only briefly, then went on to don the Union Blue and lead the Cavalry forces to glory in Cuba - marred only slightly by his own rashness at Las Guisamas. Even then Wheeler, momentarily forgetting that he was in Cuba, not at Chickamauga, uttered one of that war's most memorable lines - "We've got the damn Yankees on the run!"

Wheeler, old and grey bearded, was still full of vigor and served America one more time in the Philippines before retiring and finally dying in that well-known Southern town called New York City. He was finally laid to rest in his U.S. Army uniform at Arlington cemetery.

Dyer gave us the only solid biography of this American hero. I only wish he had provided the reader with more illustrations than just the couple showing Wheeler as a West Pointer, A Confederate General, a U.S. Senator, and finally a Major General of Volunteers in the Spanish-American War.

5-0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Biography of a Great American
John Dyer has written the fundamental biography of Joseph Wheeler.The work is a colorful, enjoyable read, which should be enjoyed by most -- it is most definitely NOT a dry, cardboard biography.All readers would enjoy the style in which Dyer writes.

Joseph Wheeler was a great American, perhaps overlooked somewhat in modern times due to his rather modest approach to life and duty.This approach seems to basically have been, 'put your head down, drive on, and perform one's Duty to the best of one's abilities, regardless of obstacles or consequences.'Wheeler upheld these principles throughout his life, having served in an astonishing number of military and political positions.He served as a Confederate Major General of Cavalry for much of the Civil War in the West.He became a planter, lawyer, and Congressman from North Alabama for much of the remainder of the 19th Century.Furthermore, he sought and gained a commission in the U.S. Army at the outbreak of the Spanish-American War.Indeed, he would command the 5th Corps, 1st Cavalry Division during combat operations in Cuba.Famous figures that served under his command there included, Colonel Leonard Wood, Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt of Rough Rider fame, as well as the 9th and 10th US Regular Cavalry Regiments (The Buffalo Soldiers), also including Jack Pershing, later to command the AEF during WWI.After his death, Wheeler was buried at Arlington National Cemetery, and was one of only two former Confederate generals to have been granted that honor.

This book is highly recommended.Read it, and learn some more about a person that was truly representative of the great American Spirit, and whose life reflected an admirable and staunch observance of (and devotion to) Duty, Honor, and Country.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great History
Dyer's book is one of the best I've seen regarding Joseph Wheeler.

Bornin GA, raised in CT, obtaining his West Point commission from a NY senator,Wheeler was a product of both North and South.Robert E. Lee proclaimedthat Wheeler was one of the two best cavalry commanders in the War Betweenthe States (the other was J.E.B. Stuart) -- he was also one of theyoungest, reaching the rank of Maj. Gen. at 26 years of age.While many ofthe old confederate commanders wasted away following the war, Wheelerbecame a prominent Congressman from Alabama, espousing reconciliation andindustrialization within his section of North Alabama, this in order toovercome the ravages wrought by the war.

Wheeler had the distinction ofbeing one of only two former Confederate general officers that LATER servedat that rank for the US Army, this time during the Spanish-American War[Fitzhugh Lee (Robert E. Lee's nephew) was the other, although the warended before Lee's troops could see action].During the Cuban campaign,Wheeler had under his command such officers and men as Leonard Wood,Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt (and the Rough Riders), "BlackJack" Pershing, and others that would gain prominence in lateryears.

Wheeler is one of the few (if not the only) high ranking formerConfederate officers to have been granted the honor of being buried atArlington National Cemetery.

His story deserves a unique place in thehistory of this nation.

5-0 out of 5 stars From Shiloh to San Juan,The life of "Fightin"Joe Wheeler
This book is details the life of one extra ordinary man, General "Fightin" Joe Wheeler.It details his life as few bigraphies do. It details the the trumiphs and the failures. But in all of this you will see the chracter of the man ride high.He had the distinction of being botha Confederate General and also leading the US Voulunteers in Cuba and thePhilippines. I would STRONGLY suggest buying this book for any historybuff. He may not be as well known as Grant, Sherman, Lee or Longstreet, Buthis contribution to the History United States deserves to be known! ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Unacclaimed Master: Reading John Berger
Since the early 1950's, John Berger has authored an almost dizzyingnumber of works on art history, art criticism, fiction and politics,as well as a large body of writing that seems to defy categorizationaltogether.And that is why one can't help but feel a kind of admiration for Geoff Dyer's courage to take on, for his first full-length book, a difficult critical subject and author in Ways of Telling: The Work of John Berger.

Although Dyer clearly seesBerger and his work as massivelyinfluential yet nearly alwaysoverlooked by his peers andcontemporaries, it is obvious that Ways ofTelling is a great dealmore than a mere reaffirmation of, or acritical love letter to, anillustrious writer and his sometimesground-breaking work.In Ways ofTelling, Dyer looks carefully at thebroad spectrum of Berger'scareer, from articles on politics andaesthetics during the early1950's published in Socialist newspapersand magazines, to novelswritten in the mid-1980's. Perhapsbecause Dyer intended (one could plausibly surmise) Ways ofTelling tobe not only an academic critique but a work written for aslightlywider readership, we are invited to take a closer look atseveral ofBerger's more universally known works.These include G, anhistoricalnovel influenced by Socialist Realism and according toDyer,possiblyinspired by the Cubist movement as well.We look at APainter of OurTime, Berger's breakthrough novel about the strugglebetween the moralimperative of being true to one's creative giftsversus fidelity toone's political beliefs. Scrutiny is also given tothe near-canonicalWays of Seeing, both the BBC television series andthe widely-read1972 book of the same name.Dyer is quick toacknowledge thatalthough the polemical, class-based attack onconsumer-drivencapitalism and "the authority of property" by way of a beautifully written critique of Western Art is often crudely drawn in Ways of Seeing. One might miss the point entirely if one chooses to ignore the manner in which Berger's sharp sense of aesthetics and his critical eye opened the floodgates to what is now the standard method for looking at art for an ever-widening audience.

No doubt it isa tall order for any reader, or writer to separate JohnBerger'sDemocratic-Socialist and Humanist value systems from much ofhis work,Dyer reminds the reader that any attempt to do so is pointless and probablyan unnecessary exercise.To quote Dyer " He is agreat writer,but the quality of his work is important, finally, notfor what itreveals of him but for what it enables us to glimpse ofourselves, ofwhat we might become-and of the culture that mightafford him therecognition that it is due." ...
